What Is Erythritol

Erythritol — origin, structure and physical properties

Erythritol is a 4-carbon sugar alcohol (polyol) with molecular formula C&sub4;H&sub1;&sub0;O&sub4; and molecular weight 122.12 g/mol. It occurs naturally in fermented foods, fungi and fruits, but is produced industrially via fermentative biotransformation of glucose using osmophilic yeasts.

The key to erythritol's unique metabolic physiology: approximately 90% is absorbed in the small intestine — unlike xylitol or sorbitol, which are fermented in the colon — but not metabolised. It passes through unchanged and is excreted renally. Hence: GI=0, 0 kcal, minimal laxative effect.

The production process uses glucose from cereal starch fermented with the osmophilic fungus Moniliella pollinis. After filtration, demineralisation, activated carbon treatment, evaporation and crystallisation, the white crystalline powder at ≥99.5% purity is obtained.

Baking Guide

Erythritol in keto baking — 7 key points

Erythritol is the most widely used sweetener in keto baking — but it behaves differently from sugar in several important ways. These differences determine the texture, mouthfeel and shelf life of the final product.

The most critical difference: erythritol is not a reducing sugar and does not participate in the Maillard reaction. Baked goods are paler than with sucrose. Erythritol also has a strongly endothermic heat of solution (~–40 J/g) — it creates a cooling sensation on the tongue, desirable in some applications (mint chocolate), off-putting in others (vanilla cream).

Erythritol recrystallises on cooling — frostings and glazes can turn sandy. Solution: combine with stevia extract or sucralose, which inhibit crystallisation.

Substitution ratio
100 g sugar
↔
130 g Erythritol
130 g erythritol replaces 100 g sucrose (due to ~70% sweetness). Volume in the dough remains similar.
🧂
Ratio: 130 g erythritol = 100 g sugar
Due to ~70% sweetness, use 30% more erythritol. Multiply recipe amount by 1.3. Volume in dough remains similar.
❄
Account for the cooling effect
Endothermic dissolution (~–40 J/g) creates a cold sensation. Advantage: mint, ice cream. Disadvantage: vanilla cream. Solution: combine erythritol + stevia.
⚗
No Maillard browning
Erythritol is not a reducing sugar. Products are paler. Solution: add milk powder or WPC 80 as Maillard precursors.
💎
Avoid recrystallisation
Frostings can turn sandy. Max 70% erythritol in the sweetener system — replace the rest with inulin or glycerol.
🌡
Melting point 119–121°C
No caramelisation like sucrose (185°C). Erythritol melts to a clear liquid then a white mass. No caramel equivalent.
💧
Low hygroscopicity
Absorbs very little moisture. Advantage: products stay crispy longer. In moisture-dependent products, compensate with applesauce or yoghurt.
🍫
Keto chocolate: the standard
Erythritol + cocoa mass + cocoa butter is the standard keto chocolate recipe. No bloom, good tempering. Standard: 100g cocoa mass + 80–100g erythritol + 30g cocoa butter.

All data from EU regulations and EFSA opinions. No marketing claims.

📉
EU Reg. 1047/2012

GI = 0: EU Health Claim

The EU Commission authorised two health claims in 2012: erythritol does not raise blood glucose, and contributes to tooth mineralisation. Both may be used on food packaging.
GI = 0 (clinically confirmed)

ADI: Not Specified

EFSA established no tolerable ADI — no harmful threshold identified. Only limitation: osmotic laxative effect at single doses above 50 g.
ADI = Not specified

Clinical studies

Non-cariogenic

Oral bacteria (Streptococcus mutans) cannot metabolise or ferment erythritol — no acid, no enamel erosion. Studies show erythritol reduces S. mutans in the oral cavity.
Non-fermentable — no acid
0️⃣
EU Reg. 1169/2011

0 Calories — the physiological reason

Erythritol is ~90% absorbed in the small intestine but not metabolised. EU Reg. 1169/2011 officially assigns erythritol 0 kcal/g — all other polyols receive 2.4 kcal/g.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions — Wholesale Erythritol

Erythritol (E968): 0 kcal/g (EU law), GI=0, renally excreted unchanged — no metabolic breakdown. Xylitol (E967): 2.4 kcal/g, GI=7–13, hepatically metabolised. Erythritol has a significantly weaker laxative effect because it is predominantly absorbed in the small intestine and excreted renally — without fermentation in the colon. Preferred for diabetic products and keto.
